RSS stands for "Really Simple Syndication".
It is a way to easily distribute a list of headlines, update notices, and sometimes inventory changes to a
wide number of people.
Think of it as a one-stop shop for all the stuff you want to read online.
For the consumer, an aggregator or reader, either web-based or installed on your computer, ties it all
together.

To make use of this information, you have to download and install an RSS feed reader like
SharpReader.
Every so often, the aggregator checks the RSS feeds you selected. You log on to the aggregator and see the
updates to your favorite sites, blogs and stores, all in one place.

2003
Gerard Raphet - Chambertin Clos de Beze (Cuvee Unique)
Light ruby red in color. An amazing bouquet of minerals, cherry, light spices, licorice with a flowery scent to it. On the palate it developed into a powerful but elegant blend. It had great fruit, some acidity, and lots of power. The finish did not seem to end.

Two Hands - Shiraz Lily's Garden
Very dark ruby red and very inky. Great nose of blackberry,licorice, peppery spice, chocolate and coffee roast. On the palate it had everything one expects form a powerful Australian Shiraz. The finish was intense and lingered on for a while.

Duckhorn - Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley
Dark red, purplish in color. The bouqet was still nice - dark berries, some current and even some chocolate. The tannins were very mild and on the palate the fruit dominated. The finish was faint - if you have any of this wine left, drink it now.

Colgin - Cariad
After reading some tasting notes on this one I decanted the wine for 8 hours. Almost black in color and with the time in the decanter a nose of blackberries, meats, licorice, and spices developed. A massive wine on the palate with an incredible finish.
